The Handlettered Movie Titles of Harold Adler

Here's a great opportunity to get a glimpse into the art of movie titles through the intriguing lettering work of Harold Adler.
From his work in the early silent movie days through to the current digital age, Adler worked with renown title designers such as Saul Bass and Paul Ferro helping to establish their unique, award-winning looks. Jill Bell, a native of Los Angeles acquainted with all of the aforementioned, will share many highly recognizable movie title clips and other art, wrapping them in historical context and anecdotes.
